The late U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia’s son, Fr. Paul Scalia, is a Catholic priest, as is his grandson, Fr. Tim Courtney. Both serve in the Diocese of Arlington.

St. Bernardine of Siena preached devotion to the Holy Name of Jesus. Promise anew never to speak the name of the Lord in anger or frustration but, rather, in thanks and praise. A good practice is to bow your head whenever you say or hear the Holy Name of Jesus.

🚨 NOW: A LARGE emergency response is underway following a structure fire at one of the OLDEST churches in Washington, DC, St. Dominic Catholic Church

It’s unfortunate that these fires are seemingly becoming more common in these historic churches, as one of the oldest churches in NYC burned down just a couple weeks ago.

Thankfully, there is a fire station with ladder trucks just one block from the church, or this could’ve been MUCH worse.

No details on the cause of the fire just yet, but National Guard responded to the scene alongside MPD and DCFD.

This is awful: Francis Bergsma, the 15-year-old son of renowned Catholic theologian John Bergsma, has died of brain cancer.

Please pray for Francis and the whole Bergsma family.

When Erika Kirk spoke the words on the man who killed her husband: “That man… that young man… I forgive him.”  That moment deeply affected me.  I have struggled for over 60 years to forgive the man who killed my Dad. I will say those words now as I type: “ I forgive the man who killed my father.”
Peace be with you all.

I love these maps. WV & NC repping the DMV. I would love to see a county by county breakdown of Maryland like the election night maps.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

I invite all the faithful to take part in a day of fasting and prayer on August 22, imploring the Lord to grant us peace and justice, and to wipe away the tears of those who suffer because of ongoing armed conflicts. May Mary, Queen of Peace, intercede so that peoples may find the path of peace.

I’ll take this opportunity to repost the Church’s wisdom on what the self-sacrificial love must look like for both spouses, taken from Pope Leo XIII’s Arcanum Divinæ

[The Catholic Traveler @MountainButorac]

Maybe this has happened before, but I can’t recall any of the previous popes *walking* the Corpus Christi Eucharistic Procession from Saint John Lateran to Santa Maria Maggiore. It’s really beautiful to see. It’s only about a mile, but it’s currently around 90° F / 31° C, and Pope Leo is carrying the monstrance. It would be perfectly acceptable to use one of the modified vehicles popes previously used in the past. This really made it hit me that the last time we had a pope in his 60s was in 1989 🩵

This is a point worth pondering.

A young nurse from Alexandria took a pilgrimage to Fatima and never came back. Now, 42 years later, Mother Maria Lucia shares why she embraced life as a cloistered nun, and why the world still needs it. 💙🙏
